🚢 “LCO₂ tanker from a ship designers’ perspective” – Earlier this week, on Wednesday, 1 October, our Senior Mechanical Engineer & Project Manager Kim Kim Nørby Christensen presented at the European CO2 Shipping Summit in Antwerp.

He addressed why a CO2 tanker is a special kind of tanker and not just an ordinary LPG tanker, how the characteristics of CO2 affect ship design, and what lies ahead for CO2 ship design.

KNUD E. HANSEN has developed a series of CO2 projects in recent years, supporting our clients in their green transition towards a reduced carbon footprint.

🚢 The GRANDE SHANGHAI recently successfully completed sea trial and was officially named during a ceremony in Haimen District in the Nantong City of Jiangsu Province, P.R. China. It is the first in a series of ten (10) next-generation PCTC vessels for Grimaldi Group.

KNUD E. HANSEN developed the vessel’s design in close collaboration with Grimaldi Group.

Measuring 220 metres in length and 38 metres in width, the vessel has a gross tonnage of over 93,000 and capacity for 9,000 CEU.

Built at China Merchants Heavy Industry (Jiangsu) Co.,Ltd, the GRANDE SHANGHAI is the first in the Grimaldi Group fleet to carry the Ammonia Ready class notation from RINA — allowing for future conversion to ammonia as a zero-carbon fuel. The vessel also features a 5 MWh battery system, cold ironing, air lubrication, and a wide range of energy-saving technologies.
